Poem Artwork


 


Shhhhhhhhhhh,


Silence requested,


Hushed required,


Muted are we,


Restrained serenity we be…


 


No sound of wind,


Not even the trees moving,


The flag flapping silently,


Only a bird can be heard…


 


Its as if the world of man did die,


If that is the case, I have no need to ask why,


If I am the last then I let out a sigh,


We are both happy old Rufuz and I…

Beautiful thoughts, Ed. May you and Rufuz have a very quiet, peaceful life. Yes, sandalwood is a sort of tree. Get you some incense and drift away on the wings you hear flapping above. Great meditation picture.

Then Good for You, I'd say. And I never thought the very last two creatures alive on this planet would be located in New Jersey. You must have found an awfully deep dark cave, you Jersey Devil, you!
